Background / History

The historical Zhang Kuang came from a farming family and rose from Cangming Star’s lowest social strata. He later received the Sword Head’s inheritance, but chose to wield a gun rather than a sword because of his experiences with poverty and sects that would not listen to reason. 158 188

In pursuit of stronger opponents, Zhang Kuang spread the Sword Head’s inheritance, creating a hundred Sage Sons and igniting Cangming Star’s era of competing schools. He ultimately unified Cangming, establishing the Blood Lotus Imperial Dynasty while searching for the Sword Head for a decisive battle. Those Hundred Sons who did not submit became his henchmen or were killed. 188 189 215

The Demonic Son later revealed that the Zhang Kuang who crossed the spacetime wormhole had already perished. The being that arrived on Earth was Zhang Kuang’s destined Spirit Weapon, which continued to bear the Demonic Son identity and memories associated with its master. 269

Appearance

The Demonic Son normally manifests as a handsome young man with a heroic build, red hair, and blood-red eyes. His unsettling smiles and black-and-red Fierce Fire make his presence more intimidating than his youthful appearance suggests. 151 183 224

• Shoulder-length red hair resembling blood-stained spear tassels 264
• Crimson eyes and a frequent, unnerving grin 146 151
• Usually appears in casual clothing or Caolu Academy attire 144 183
• Often accompanied by a distorted demon-god phantom and black-and-red flames 224
• True body is a plain metal spear surrounded by his red-haired humanoid phantom 269
• States that his hair was originally meant to be black, linking his red hair to his spear nature 269

Personality

The Demonic Son is carefree, impulsive, and driven by the pleasure of battle. He does not seek political power for its own sake; his unification of Cangming Star was primarily tied to his desire to find opponents worthy of fighting him, especially the Sword Head. 189 190

He is brutally decisive toward enemies and takes visible enjoyment in combat, destruction, and the fear he inspires. Nevertheless, he does not habitually bully the weak, treats younger Earthlings with unusual tolerance, and can show gratitude or concern for allies. 256 264 285

Despite his title, he considers “Demonic Son” a wrongly acquired label and claims that he is a good person. 151

Abilities & Skills

Divine Weapon Physiology

The Demonic Son’s humanoid body is a manifestation of a sentient spear. His divine-weapon nature grants extraordinary resilience and allows him to take on a more powerful spear form. 269 272

• A single roar halted hundreds of Eternal Civilization mechs 263 264
• Broke through defensive barriers, destroyed tower shields, and killed “Absolute Defense” in close combat 264

• Can permanently annihilate White Hyena aliens by destroying their spiritual bodies 189

• Condensed a suspended ocean and generated large-scale flames with spoken commands 188
• Restored terrain damaged by his elemental display 188
• Sensed the Sword Head’s residual Sword Rhyme and replicated it into a Spirit Sword 187

Emotional Manipulation

During AQ3399’s interrogation, the Demonic Son appeared able to intensify specific emotions, drawing out resentment until the captive willingly supplied intelligence against the Eternal Civilization. 192

• Exploited AQ3399’s despair, resentment, and perceived betrayal 192
• Turned AQ3399’s desire for self-preservation into a desire to retaliate against fellow Eternals 192

Story Role / Major Arcs

Descent to Earth

The Demonic Son arrives at Caolu Academy in a meteor and quickly gains a reputation as a fierce protector against White Hyena aliens in Hubei. His violent first encounters make Earth’s authorities and academy members wary of him. 140 164 187

Caolu Academy and the Eternal Civilization

He becomes an uneasy but effective ally of Earth, interrogating Eternal prisoners, saving Su Qiangwei’s group, and annihilating BE6651, the Extreme Efficiency Monarch, and numerous Eternal Civilization combatants. 191 225 229 230

During the interstellar expedition, he leads the assault on the consciousness transfer factory alongside Ma Ran and Su Qiangwei. His overwhelming combat ability helps subdue the facility and capture nine hundred prisoners in ten minutes. 256

Revelation of His True Form

When the Eternal Civilization’s mastermind imposes hundredfold gravity, the Demonic Son reveals his true nature as a spear and supports the Earth squad in divine-weapon form. This exposes that the original Zhang Kuang had died before reaching Earth. 269 272

Departure and Chaos Starfield Uprising

After returning toward Cangming Star, he parts from Caolu Academy with Wu Di’s Earth-made gifts and a promise to meet again. 285
